If Broodwar is really the timeless game many claim, it will survive this transition. If not, then its' skeletal remains will soon litter the boneyard of forgotten games. Maybe it will live on for a while as a shadow of its' former self, its' ghostly profile fading slowly into the mists of time as one by one, its' tiny brotherhood of diehard fans drifts away.

But those true believers out there all know the truth--because its' vigorous life-force is fuelled by that miraculous and rejuvenating creativity of the human spirit! Nay, it shall not die! It shall live on for all time as the quintessence of harmony and balance amidst chaos; the serene and elegant order within disorder; the creator and destroyer of dreams; the uncommon; the exception; the extraordinary! NAY IT SHALL LIVE!

But seriously... It's dead right?

I just sunk like 160$ into the SC2 launch, I bought the game, had to get a new headset which ran me 80$ (What can I say, my bestbuy discount is pretty good) then the game was running so bad on LOW setting even though I had a video card with 512 DDR2 (or 3?) turns out is was the shittiest nvidia ever made, a G100. Just spent another 80$ on a new video card a Radeon 5450. I can run it on max which is great. But I honestly did it for the campaign and just doing some random shit with friends.

Just like a lot of others, SCII will never take another 12 years of my life, I acknowledge its a good game hence why I spent the money but to me its going to be a casual thing, I just find BW way more fun when I actually really want to be competitive. But I am sure its going to make a great esport and congrats on blizzard for actually making a worthy follow-up to a great game.

Brood War will forever remain in the hearts and minds of this generation of gamers.

No matter how a legion of 50 post worker icon SC2 fanboys say otherwise.
No dough, no go. And no mercy.

I'm personally quite a bit disappointed/sad that people like Day[9] or Artosis, no matter how amazing they have been and still are for the community, have apparently completely forgotten about BW, and keep referring to it as "the old Starcraft".


What's worse is when Artosis actively tries to help to kill Brood War with his rumor-mongering over how this is going to be the last OSL. (I don't know if he's done anything else like that.)

I understand that he has been way way way more helpful to the BW community in the past than some random poster like me will ever be, but that doesn't change the fact that it just feels kind of like a betrayal.

And I really miss Day[9] dailies, as well as casts by Husky.

Bw rules as always. I don't mind that everyone is hopping on the SC2 train, just as long as the SC pro league, msl, and osl are still broadcasted.

O and Chill needs to calm it in his pants.

after watching like 10 SC2 game it really feel like SC2 is not as good as BW when it come to watching entetainment ...

You more VOD "experienced guys" feel the same ?

(I only played 3 SC2 game on the beta but I played a lot of BW ...)

I will certainly be sticking with BW, I may end up purchasing SC2 out of curiosity at some point but I really doubt that it can compare to BW.

Also I find BW a lot more entertaining to watch than SC2 and it saddens me that people such as Day[9] and Artosis are now focused 100% on SC2.

I hope to god that the proscene in Korea lives on too! (I'm sure it will keep going for a number of years)

I kinda get this premonitory feeling that BW will become like some old man sport like cricket, and SC2 will be the new cool thing all the youngsters are into. Flash and Jaedong will be playing bw in a park at some old age like you'd see old men playing chess, talking in their old fashioned slang of their youth and relating grumblings about new times.

For me, BW is still a great game but it is not as fun anymore as it used to be the last 10 years. I have played a lot of SC2 in the beta and I love it as well. I bought it and I think I will have a lot of fun with it.
The most important thing is: Don't compare both games. Leave BW as it was, it will always be remembered as your favorite game ever. At least if you have played it for many years and are not new to the scene. Enjoy SC2 and if you feel like playing some nostalgic BW again then do this.
But BW is not forgotten anymore. Although I don't play it anymore I still love to watch VODS because they are just highly entertaining.

My friend's cat just had 5 kittens. He is looking to give them away, and while I think he loves them I am prepared to let you take them for a very competitive price .

I honestly doubt money is the driving factor in anything these two have done. It's just newer and fresher.
